The academic program will be built around a series of case studies that will highlight the key points in relation to the management of medical emergencies that occur as a result of our interaction with our environment. We will be encouraging delegates to submit any intersting cases they may wish to discuss relevant to the workshop themes.

The intent is to run workshops between 07:00-09:00 and 17:00-18:45 but we will exercise some flexibility in order to allow for any environmental or logistical factors that may influence the day's cycling activities.
